Eleven ways to tie a scarf
cross-posted from: feddit.nl/post/13757940
beebarfbadger, Where’s the Windsor knot?
ThatWeirdGuy1001, 
I didn’t check the community name and fully expected one of these to be a noose.
therealjcdenton, That’s a weird way to spell scarf
Pringles, Reverse drape tuck ftw
morphballganon, Apparently the thing I do is called a Parisian knot. Neat.
Anticorp, A lot of those are just fancy nooses that can be used against you in a fight.
Cethin, People can grab your hair and clothing in a fight too. It’s best to go around naked and fully shaved in case someone decides to attack. Add a coating of oil for extra protection.
Anticorp, That’s a great idea unless you’re a Brazilian jujitsu fighter, then you want them to grab you so you can do fancy locks and break their fingers.
Rentlar, I like how one of the ways to tie the scarf is “just don’t tie it”.
kent_eh, That’s the one I typically use. Didn’t even know (or care) it had an official place in scarf tying culture.
half_built_pyramids, I used to do Paris, 4 in hand looks legit
johannesvanderwhales, 4 in hand is just a standard tie knot applied to a scarf.
sbv, Misread this as Elven Ways to tie a Scarf. Now I’m sad Legolas isn’t going to gimme drip.
Panties, Same here!
RGB3x3, I thought it was 11 ways to tie a tie and thought it must have been a shit post when I saw the fourth one.
Revonult, I was about to comment this!
sbv, We need more fashion advice from mythological races.

Deebster, 
Weirdly, the largest versions I found have the labels underneath instead of top:

jadero, It seems to me that if you are going to include 4-in-hand, a traditional necktie knot, then you should include these: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_85_Ways_to_Tie_a_Tie (at a minimum) and possibly reference this: phys.org/news/2014-02-mathematicians-ways.html (177,147 ways). 😀
theorangeninja, Thank you for providing the references, I was not aware of these!
jadero, No problem! I was once at a place that imposed a mandatory necktie policy. I hate neckties, so I thought I’d at least have fun with it. I wore ties as silly and varied as I could get away with and tied them different every day. That book was a boon.
kent_eh, Did you try the Back To The Future double tie?
jadero, I did not. I did only single-tie systems for mathematical purity. (Just kidding. I might have tried it if I had thought to!)
Flughoernchen, Imagine bringing home your date and they take off their jacket just to show off the chest warmer.
